Avoid all mystery. There is no mystery in religion.
Swami Vivekananda
Stand upon the Atman, then only can we truly love the world. Take a very, very high stand knowing our universal nature, we must look with perfect calmness upon all the panorama of the world.
Swami Vivekananda
Great work requires great and persistent effort for a long time. ... Character has to be established through a thousand stumbles.
Swami Vivekananda
The body and mind are dependent.
Swami Vivekananda
The great lesson is, that unity is behind all. Call it God, Love, Spirit. Allah, Jehovah - it is the same unity that animates all life from the lowest animal to the noblest man.
Swami Vivekananda
Renunciation is the very basis upon which ethics stands.
Swami Vivekananda
Man has infinite power within himself, and he can realise it - he can realise himself as the one infinite Self. It can be done but you do not believe it. You pray to God and keep your powder dry all the time.
Swami Vivekananda
The only saint is that soul that never weakens, faces everything, and determines to die game.
Swami Vivekananda
Change is always subjective. To talk of evil and misery is nonsense, because they do not exist outside. If I am immune from all anger, I never feel angry. If am immune from all hatred, I never feel hatred.
Swami Vivekananda
You have no more anger when you are all love, bliss, infinite existence. . . .
Swami Vivekananda
Each nation has a theme: everything else is secondary. India's theme is religion.
Swami Vivekananda
To succeed, you must have tremendous perserverance... tremendous will. I will drink the ocean, says the perservering soul at my will mountains will crumble. Have that sort of energy, that sort of will work hard, and you will reach the goal.
Swami Vivekananda
As the different streams, having their sources in different places, all mingle their water in the sea O Lord, so the different paths which men take through different tendencies, various though they appear, crooked or straight, all lead to Thee.
Swami Vivekananda
Children of those ancient Aryans, through the grace of the Lord may you have the same pride, may that faith in your ancestors come into your blood, may it become a part and parcel of your lives, may it work towards the salvation of the world!
Swami Vivekananda
Your country requires heroes be heroes your duty is to go on working, and then everything will follow of itself.
Swami Vivekananda
That man has reached immortality who is disturbed by nothing material.
Swami Vivekananda
It is good to love God for hope of reward, but it is better to love God for love's sake and the prayer goes: O Lord, I do not want wealth nor children nor learning. If it be Thy will, I shall go from birth to birth. But grant me this, that I may love thee without the hope of reward 'love' unselfishly for love's sake.
Swami Vivekananda
It may be that I shall find it good to get outside of my body - to cast it off like a disused garment. But I shall not cease to work! I shall inspire men everywhere, until the world shall know that it is one with God.
Swami Vivekananda
My child, what I want is muscles of iron and nerves of steel, inside which dwells a mind of the same material as that of which the thunderbolt is made.
Swami Vivekananda
The infinite library of the Universe is in your mind.
